"This battle is inevitable. If this is the case, why not let the Second Prince join us to fight against the Huns."
Lu Daxin, who had been silent in the corner, suddenly spoke up.
Hearing his voice, Lu Wan looked up, only to see his brother, who usually laughed and joked, standing there with a serious face, as if the words he had just said did not come from his mouth.
Lu Wan immediately understood what he meant. He was stunned for a moment, then said, "Brother, what you mean is..."
Obviously, Shen Yan also understood what he meant, and followed up on Lu Wan’s words, “He meant to let the Second Prince help us fight the First Prince.”
From the letter that came in across the border, it was already known that the person leading the troops to fight this time was the eldest prince of the Xiongnu. It was said that the eldest prince's methods were comparable to those of the Xiongnu king. He was also knowledgeable and well-versed in military books. He was not someone who was easily fooled.
What Shen Yan said was to let the second prince fight the eldest prince, not the Huns. This has turned the conflict between the two countries into a conflict between the two princes. In this way, the entire country of Dongxia can be left out.
Lu Wan suddenly had an idea. If he used the identity of the Second Prince, it would be equivalent to the Kingdom of Dongxia lending its troops to the Second Prince to purge the court.
In this way, they will have a legitimate reason to send troops and will not be criticized by other countries and united to boycott.
"What if it's not as we guessed? After all, the eldest prince's rebellion is just our guess, and the real situation is still unknown."
Lu Wan was still a little worried. What if the Hun King did not value the Second Prince as much as they imagined? What if the Hun King tacitly approved the Hun First Prince to attack the Dongxia Kingdom? All their reasons would be completely invalid.
After Lu Daxin expressed his opinion just now, which opened up a new idea for Shen Yan and Lu Wan, he resumed his usual behavior.
Lu Daxin laughed a few times, then said, "There is no rush for these things. There are still nearly ten days before I go out to fight. In these ten days, there are still many things that can be done. You two should take a break. When I go out, you can go with me."
Although the Regent had to leave the capital without being summoned, Chen Yan had other ways to make others think that he was still in the capital, so he nodded to show his agreement.
Shen Yan was also quite interested in the things happening on the border. First, it involved his good friends, and second, there were indeed things to be resolved on the border, such as Song Ping.
Lu Wan had long wanted to visit the border. He had heard that the scenery there was pretty good, and that the plants there were different from those in the capital. When he was studying history, he had discovered that there was a very small witchcraft country right there. Lu Wan was quite interested in ancient things.
But Lu Wan was also in a dilemma for a moment. His face was pulled down, like a bitter gourd, tightly wrinkled, and he said very embarrassedly: "One of you is going to the border to fight, and the other has his own way. What should I do?"
Ever since Lu Wan took a more prominent position in the court, he could often feel that many people in the court were looking at him. He probably knew that it was because he was promoted too quickly, so he attracted the attention of others, or maybe it was because he was too fair and tender, and it seemed a little out of place for him to stand in the court like a girl.
But since he has already entered the court and holds an important position, how can he leave the court so easily?
Seeing his embarrassment, Shen Yan laughed and said, "Don't worry about this. I have my own way. Pack your luggage when you go back, and we will set off for the border in ten days."
With Chen Yan's words, Lu Wan felt much more relieved. Before, Chen Yan and the others had always disagreed with him going through life and death with them, thinking it was too dangerous. But now they agreed to let him go to the border with them, and he was very excited.
Seeing Lu Wan's look, Lu Daxin was also very happy. This time they were heading to the border, most of the border was still Lu Daxin's territory, so relatively speaking, it was a little safer than being isolated and helpless in the capital.
He also knew that Lu Wan's personality was not suitable for a stable life and that she was more interested in more adventurous things. It just so happened that he was going to a border country called Shenyue Kingdom this time and could take Lu Wan with him.
"But I have to make it clear to you in advance. The border is not completely safe. There are only a few places where your safety can be guaranteed. So when you get there, you are not allowed to run around. You must be in our sight at all times."
Lu Daxin had given some hard requirements. Seeing his serious look, Lu Wan immediately made a gesture with his hands and swore, "I promise I will never run around. I will definitely listen to you. What do you want me to do? What will I do? If you want me to go east, I will never go west."
Seeing him swearing, Lu Daxin and Shen Yan looked at each other and laughed out loud. It was the best thing to get his guarantee.
"Since you said you won't run around, then you can't wander around. And when you get there, you must follow our arrangements. The border is dangerous. If you are not someone who often stays in Wu Ke and can guarantee your safety, we will definitely not take you to the border."
After hearing that Lu Wan had already made a promise, Shen Yan became more demanding and made more requests, but Lu Wan agreed to them one by one.
